It is well to here emphasize the fact that members have contributed the-ir experience and skill to the prepara tion of these standards without hope of reward other than the satisfaction which comes to those who know they have contributed to a worthy caus. The educational branch is performing a service, the value of which cannot bo overestimated. It is leading a gen- Aral eamnaisrn against waste by fire. From this brief statement of the Association's activities you will see that there is an opportunity for every man to perform some sort of service, Pres. Chas- E. Meeks. Objective View. 1. The adoption by municipalltfe of the Standard Building Code of the National Board of Fire Underwriters to the end that fire resistive building construction may be encouraged, the use of Inflammable roof coverings pro hibited, adequate exit facilities from buildings assured, and Interiors so de signed and flre-stopped as to make easy the extinguishment of fires therein. 2. The adoption by all States of minimum building requirements for the protection of state and county hos pitals, asylums and similar institu tions outside city limits and of small communities in which the establish ment and enforcement of a building code is impracticable. 4. The adoption of the Association's suggested ordinance providing for the NO COLD FEET FOR THE Cataw County OB & Over $2,000 in Cash Premiums, j Get Your Exhibits Ready!

The enactment of ordinances similar to that of Cleveland, Ohio, fix. ing the cost of extinguishing prevent able fires upon citizens disregarding fire prevention orders, and a more gen eral legal recognition of the common law pr'iciple of personal liability for damage resulting from fires due to carelessness or neglect. 6. The wider general use of the automatic sprinkler as a fire exting- I rsNs oN3 cross gt THE SUMMARISE LOSSES (New York Evening Post. The week ending Au. 2G was the 2Gth week for which the Bnu ish admiralty has been quoting los es in terms of ships over and under 1,600 tons. The first week record, ed was that ending March 4. In this half-year exactly, the number oi and tho number below 1000 tons was 172. The safe formula in esti mating tonnage is to allow 450 tons for the ships of the larger class, liy ths reckoning and allowing 100 tons for ships of the smaller class, it would appear that the British losses for 2G weeks have been 2,430,000 tons. If we subdivide this half-year into two, the first period of 13 weeks would show a weekly average of 2i big ships lost; the second period would show a weekly average of IS ship3. Yesterday's report of 20 ships thus comes close to the average weekly maximum. In attempting an estimate of what the British record of ''osses for the calendar year 1917 may be, let us as sume that for the remainder of the year this weekly average of 20 ship- will be maintained. That would give us for the remaining 18 weeks of 1917 a loss of 3G0 more big ships with a total loss in big ships of 3,- 900,000 .tons since March. To this we must add, first, the loss in sman ships for the period from March to the end of the year of not more than 300 000 tons, and second, the losses for January and February of the present year before the admiralty re ports begin, for which a generous al lowance woull be 800,000 tons. Al together, then, the year 1917, in thb absence of any startling changes in the submarine average will show a British loss of 5,000,000 tons. 'These figures represent the gross sinkings. To obtain the net loss Wb must subtract the ships 'built ana purchased in 1917, which Lloyd George in his speech of August lr placed at 1,900,000 tons. The net British loss would thus be a little over 3,000,000 tons for the year 1917. Buv more clearly to understand the tone of confidence which marked the premier's summary of the submarine problem it is necessary to note the parsjlel between increased ship bui'ding activity and a decline in ac ual sinkings. Thus for the first six months otf the yearl according to Lloyd George ships were built U the extent of 484,000 tons, or about 80,000 tons per mortfJi. For the las; six mori'tjhs rthe new buijdinfc, would be 1,100,000 tons, or nearly 190,000 tons per month. The diffei- ence between 560,000 tons sunk in April against 80,000 tons built, and 320,000 tons sunk in July a against 190,000 tons built that is to say, a month deficit of 480,000 tons declining to a monthly deficit of 130,000 tons measures the diger ence in the British outlook. It is a difference exemplified by the change of tone in a sober and well Guardian, which at the beginning of the new submarine campaign anti cipated a loss for the year of 6, 000,000 tons, with the gravest conss ships lost over 1,600 tons was 50b quences. The Guardian still speaks of the submarine problem as serious, but for conditions after the war. We may estimate that allied loss es other than British are about 20 per cent of British losses, and that neutral losses would be from 20 to 30 per cent more. If the British losses, therefore, since the new sub marine warfare, have been 2,430,000 tons, the addition of 50 per .cent woil'd make the total U-boats boot about 3,65Q,000 tons The German claim of 6,000,000 tons must be ex plained by the mystery of German methods and the German mind. 'The sum of the situation is, then, that at the end of the present year Great Britain will have 3,000,000 tons less shipping than at the begin- WANTED A lareg second handed (wood burning stove.

If the sub marine losses in 1918 can be kept down to 20 British ships a week, the gross loss in that year will be 5,000,000 tons. Against that must be set off" a building program whicn will give about 2,500,000 tons in Great Britain and the output of Am erican shipyards.
